Dr. Michael Jones returns to Our Interesting Times to discuss in his book Barren Metal which examines the contrast between British Empiricism and German Idealism. We talk about how the Anglo system of state-sponsored usury contrasted with German idea of labor and why this conflict of visions culminated in the two world wars of the 20th century.
Dr. Jones is a historian, prolific writer and editor of Culture Wars magazine. Among his many books are The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit and Its Impact on World History, The Slaughter of Cities, Barren Metal : A History of Capitalism as the Conflict Between Labor and Usury and the most recent The Broken Pump in Tanzania: Julius Nyerere and the Collapse of Development Economics. His books and a subscription to Culture Wars can be purchased at culturewars.com.
